You can use vegetable oil too. I remember with my first couple dogs, GDB had
us put a tablespoon of vegetable oil in the dog food every day.

There are also pill pockets. It can get a little pricy though,
but you could put the capsules in the pill pockets. Your dog
will eat that most likely! haha

Thanks Marsha. I was kind of hoping I could avoid puncturing the
tablet and just have her eat it with her fod. GDB adds water to
the
dog's food as well. I might just try dropping the tablet in her
food
and see if she'll eat it like that, if not, I'll go the other
route.

Minh,
With my first guide, I added a tablet worths to her water. With
my Emma
girl, I added a punctured tablet to her food. Once she got sick
and would
eat around the tablet, I would squeeze out the contents of the
tablet on to
her wet food. She was from TSE, where they give the pup food
with a little
bit of water on it. Not sure if they do that anymore. With
this pup I will
puncture the tablet and put into her dry food. I guess it
depends on the
pup, the school in which you got yoru pup from, and how the food
is given to
the pup.
Yes it does smell bad, it is from fish though...LOL

I'm curious, when you give your dog the fish oil tablet, do you
add it
to the food or do you do it by hand? My boyfriend gives his dog
a fish
oil supplement but it's liquid and it smells absolutely
atrocious so
I've avoided going that route for a while. Now that winter is
fast
approaching, I'm noticing that my dog is itching more because
her coat
is getting dryer so I want to start her on fish oil.

thank you everyone for your responses. I never knew that humans
could
take
fish oil too, until a fmaily member told me of it. I have been
giving to
my
pups for a while. Just glad I don't have to buy separate
tablets for the
pup
too.

Marsha,
My vet niece assures me that the same fish oil I take is also
good for
the
dogs. So we ran out of fish oil, and I keep forgetting to get
more.
/lol/

Listers,
I recently began taking a fish oil supplement that I purchased
from
Costco. Of course since fall and winter have now started
visiting the
Northeast, my pup has dry skin and will itch. Are the fish oil
pills
that
humans take, the same that are safe for pups? Are they
different?
Just wondering if anyone knows.
Thanks,
